Chorus✦
I've been round the world ballin,✦ did it all, what's next?
While most of y'all busters on your first rolex✦
Been deep in the life kid, since 76
Touched the water,✦ the crack game, the jewelry licks
Fix yourself if you're broke fool, that ain't my fault
The game must be taught and comprehended, then implemented
Moves✦ done illegally,✦ carried out strategically✦
Or else incarceration✦ is felt, the hand is dealt
You lose it's frightening
Hit with 10 indictments
Kiss your baby✦ and your wife
You're riding✦ kites✦ for life
Alot✦ of y'all won't feel me, but some of y'all do
I'll move at least a half a mill of this before✦ I'm through
That ain't the most, but I've done this longer✦ than you
Plus it ain't my only✦ gig, I'm still connected
With the boys that can flip a thou to a ticket✦
Wicked
My stature✦ when you're in my rapture✦
Meet me on the street? I'm the nicest brother you meet
Confusing sometimes, the way I bust a rough rhyme
You might think I'm lying, cool I like that
I smile in your face, squeeze off the case, rock the Glock back
In your stomach, then I'll smile again✦
Don't want to be your enemy,✦ I'd rather✦ be your friend
Only✦ the real win in the game, but what's the prize?
Every✦ man goes through mad drama, and every✦ man dies
Look in my eyes, touch my soul, I ain't like you
The evil I've done, I've got lots of retribution✦ to do
That's an impossible task, cause every✦ night the gats blast
So I look to the sky and ask
I've been blessed by God to rock this mic hard, so I do it
You got a problem, work through it
I love New York night, bright lights and action
I love bailin✦ with my Bronx niggas,✦ party✦ crashin
I love switch hittin✦ with my niggas✦ on the shaw
You might see me in New Orleans at Mardi✦ Gras
Or Miami✦ at the Lex, in the Oaktown live
Or in Chi-town at the Players Ball, true P.I
Pimp or Die, Ice baby,✦ it's a well known fact
That true players play the whole map
And we play all the way to (NY NY)
